Landmark Ruling on Financial Provision

Landmark Ruling on Financial Provision

The recent Supreme Court ruling in the case of Wyatt v Vince [2015] UKSC 14 highlights how important it is to obtain a financial Consent Order during divorce, in order to finalise the proceedings.

 

The court ruled that the passage of time (in this case 22 years) did not prevent a claim being brought by a woman against her ex husband for financial provision.
